As for the actual story demi linked to, I can hardly believe the gall of the guy who placed the hoax call to say that it wasn't his fault.

This is one reason I'm so against violent video games. Not only are they a huge waste of time (the amount of time people spend on them) but the culture of gaming is fundamentally sick to the point where this swatting sort of thing is common, but perhaps that is to be expected with an activity where you simulate killing each other. My brother flunked out of college, partly because he got so addicted to gaming that he wouldn't leave his dorm room (there were other health issues going on but that was part of it).
